Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1400326A2] A fixed base router (10) is provided comprising a base (12) having a central bore (32). The router includes an adjusting ring (14) rotatably affixed to a base upper end, being coaxial with the central bore, and having a series of gear teeth formed thereto defining a ring gear (68). A motor housing (16), including a motor for imparting rotational motion to a tool holder, is threadably engaged with the adjusting ring. A pinion gear (70), journaled for rotation relative to the base, is engaged with the ring gear (68), and is coupled for rotation with a dial extending from the base. The base is adapted to prevent rotation of the motor housing relative thereto, such that rotation of the adjusting ring axially translates the motor housing relative to the base. The router includes a scale and indicator for indicating fine adjustment of the motor housing relative to the base.
